Rogan said he liked Bernie Sanders in 2016 but he ended up voting for Gary Johnson because Johnson agreed to be interviewed on Rogan's show. Rogan told Jimmy Dore that he liked Bernie Sanders and Tulsi Gabbard but everyone else could “eat shit.” He told Bari Weiss that he also liked Andrew Yang but that he would probably vote for Sanders. After Sanders lost, Rogan said he wouldn't vote for Joe Biden. In 2024, Rogan interviewed Robert F Kennedy Junior and said he liked him. Rogan later interviewed Donald Trump, JD Vance and Elon Musk and said that he would vote for Trump because Musk convinced him to vote for Trump.
